        "Okay. Can you hear me in the studio? I'm reporting to you live from the skies over Hosu City. It's unclear what's happening below, but take a look! Large clouds of smoke and fire are rising from different locations in the area. Is this due to a series of accidents? Or have villains taken the streets? Currently, we have no info on the situation here, but our station will continue reporting as this breaking story unfolds."

        "And cut!" The cameraman in the helicopter with the reporter says.

         "Don't you dare stop filming. Wait...what in the world? Look," she demands.

        "At what?"

        "Right there. Check out the building with the water tower on top. Zoom in."

        "There's people, two of them!"

        "Bystanders? How'd they get up there?" She wonders.

        Shigaraki stares through his binoculars at the scenes of all his dead Nomus and places all of his fingers on the binoculars, making it decay with his Quirk. "We're leaving," he says.

        "And are you satisfied with the results, Tomura Shigaraki?" Kurogiri asks.

        "Depends on tomorrow's headlines, moron," he answers as he steps into the portal.

        It is the morning after the fight with the Hero Killer, and we were all resting in a shared hospital room at Hosu General Hospital. I stare out the window to see the clear blue sky when Todoroki speaks.

        "Did you sleep, Midoriya?" He asks.

        "No, not really," he answers.

        "Takahashi?" he asks me.

        I look over at Todoroki and say, "No." I quickly look back out the window.

        "I figured. Me neither," Todoroki says.

        "Thinking about that fight now, we did something pretty amazing," Izukun ponders.

        "Yeah, I agree."

        I scoff, but none of them seem to notice. My thoughts have been eating me alive since we were brought to the hospital and the adrenaline finally dropped.

        "After everything that happened back there, it kinda feels like a miracle we're even alive. With my leg messed up, I was an easy target. He probably could've killed me if he really wanted to," Izukun says.
